CX500 serial connection

Like some others here, I'm having difficulty connecting to a CX500 system via serial port. I purchased this system used so I have no idea what any of the IP addresses or passwords are.

Navi cli doesn't return some metrics

Hi. Have issues with returning LUN data using NaviCLI-Linux-64-x86-en_US.7.33.9.2.31 for storages CX4-120 and VNX5200. naviseccli -h 192.168.10.10 getall VNX5200: Private LUNs which are part of metalun always return "0" for metrics "Number of arrivals with non-zero queue" and "Sum queue lengths

Enabling Data Deduplication on EMC VNX

Hi, I decided to enabling Data Deduplication on my EMC VNX storage, I want to know I should have a License to do that ? Thanks

I believe that deduplication may need a license. Check in Unisphere, there is a section that lists what is currently installed, the Help section should also point you to where dedupe is located in Unisphere. If it's not there, then you probably need
